The World As I See It
Jason Mraz Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

The world as I see it
Is a remarkable place
A beautiful house in a forest
Of stars in outer space
From a birds eye view
I can see it has a well-rounded personality
From a birds eye view, I can see
We are family
It’s not hard for me to love you
Hard for me to love you
No it’s not a difficult thing

It’s not hard for me to love you
Hard for me to love you
Because you are the world to me
Yeah the world as I see it
Is a remarkable place
Every man makes a difference
And every mothers child is a saint

From a birds eye view I can see
We are spiraling down in gravity
From a birds eye view I can see
You are just like me

It’s not hard for me to love you
Hard for me to love you
No it’s not a difficult thing

It’s not hard for me to love you
Oh I really love you unconditionally
No it’s not hard for me to love you
Hard for me to love you
No it’s not a difficult thing
It’s not hard for me to love you
Oh I really love you
Love you are the world to me.

You are the mountain
You are the rock
You are the cord
And you’re the spark
You are the eagle
You are the lark
You are the world
And you’re remarkable
You’re the ocean eating the shore
You are the calm inside the storm
You’re every emotion, you can endure
You are the world and the world is yours

It’s not hard for me to love you
Hard for me to love you, no it’s not a difficult thing
No it’s not hard for me to love you
Hard for me to love you, unconditionally
No it’s not hard for me to love you
Hard for me to love you
No it’s not a difficult thing
It’s not hard for me to love you
Hard for me to love you,
Because you are the world to me.

No it’s not hard for me to love you
Hard for me to love you no it’s not a difficult thing.
It’s not hard for me to love you hard for me to love you
Because you are the world to me.





Yeah the world as I see it, is a remarkable place
